Vintage Tatting - A Traycloth motif from 1916




If you are getting started on your Christmas tatting already, the center motif from this tray cloth (first three rows) would, stiffly starched, make a classic snowflake (even if it does have eight points instead of six).  It's from a 1916 Bucilla tatting and crochet manual, with the instructions on p43.

(And if you do filet crochet, there are a variety of fantastic "La Belle et La Bete" beasts on pages 9-12.
